By having a unit title it allows anyone (including administrators) to know what unit this lesson will be covering.
When creating lessons, we need to have a start and end date in mind, even if you have to tweak it along the way.
This will be a great add-on if you have a co-teacher and/or have multiple classes this course is taught. It helps to give a clear picture of who is in charge in the classrooms.
Lesson plans need to include the standards that are going to be taught to the students. The GA standards of excellence are one of the highest benchmarks for Biology and are what our state uses to guide what students should be learning. Want a copy of these too? Get them with the freebie.
When planning what you are doing for the unit, breaking it down into the number of days and the date/day of the week helps to keep you on track of what needs to be covered and when you are going to cover it.
These are so in right now and admin typically expects to see them in lesson plans now. Learning targets are what they students will be able to do as a result of that lesson. You can choose to have unit learning targets, but having a new learning target each day helps you and the student know what they are expected to learn from that lesson.
This is where you will fill in what you will be doing during the class period. You can put as much or little detail as you want here. I find it helpful to use bullet points for each new activity and also include transitions. Specifically, if there is a video clip I will put the length of the video in parentheses so i know how long it will be. I als...
This is where you will add how you are going to see if they learned the information you taught that day. You can be creative here. Oftentimes, I use exit tickets, surveys, quizizzgames, etc…the list goes on.
Here is where you add in your remediation piece. How do you make sure the students who didn’t get it the first time eventually get it? You could assign USA Test Prep activities, you could have a mini-tutoring session. You also could have students watch a video clip and answer a few questions (ex. EdPuzzle or Nearpod). This doesn’t need to take a to...
Lastly, you are going to add in various ways you will assess your students. Believe it or not, you already do this daily and don’t even think twice about it. You are simply documenting your formative or summative assessment. Examples of formative assessments include teacher observation, a quiz, student participation, classwork, or even a lab. Summa...
Jun 5, 2019 · The biology curriculum involves the study of living organisms and their interactions with each other and the environment. The course provides students with laboratories designed to help them understand the nature of living organisms along with their similarities and differences.
opportunities to learn core biology, chemistry and physics disciplinary ideas within interdisciplinary contexts. Students should select courses based on their interests and what they believe will best fit their needs after high school.
